Loco: SAR 406 (Garrett) on the main line approaching Paratoo

Consist: Attached to SAR 406. 23 CCC gondola wagons, 1 DB Guard Van.

Getting Started:

  1. The first step is to pause the session by pressing the P key.
  2. Next locate your loco. Either:-
    1. Open the Finder (press CTRL-F) and type, in the name field, the name of the loco. For example SAR T 210 (or just T 210 should be enough). Click the tick icon, OR
    2. Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and select the loco from there - click the drivers Eye icon to jump to the loco.
  3. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Use the Location Index (this link will open in this window) and click on Gladstone to load its location details and track plans. The Tab PH Grey.png tab will give you the EIT Paths that are available if you wish to use them. The Tab TM Grey.png tab will give you the location and names of the invisible Track Marks for Drive To commands. The Tab IN Grey.png tab will show the names and locations of all active industries and their commodities. The Tab SW Grey.png tab will give the names and locations of all junction switches as well as some switch sets you may want to use.
  4. Each location page has a direct link to the next location page, in all directions, so you can explore along the route.
  5. When you are ready to start, reload the Peterborough Base Session page (click the Scenarios button on your current location page) and select this Scenario again or just use the Back button on your browser - whichever is quicker.
  6. Switch back to TRS19 Driver and press the P key to start the session.
Tasks:
  1. Take the train into Paratoo Yard on the Main Line. Water the loco as needed.
  2. Proceed to Peterborough Loop or Peterborough Yard 1.
  3. Detach the loco and proceed to Peterborough Main Depot Fuel Water Stage to refuel the tender with bunker c oil and water.
  4. Option: Reattach the loco to the train and proceed by 09:30 to Gladstone Yard.
Driving Notes:
  • Fuel oil level is low, but sufficient to reach Peterborough where it can be refilled
  • Water is very low and you will need to refill either here at Paratoo or at Nackara
  • The length of the train restricts its use of passing loops and yard loops to those located at:-
    • Methuen Loop
    • Nackara Station Loop and Nackara Goods
    • Peechara Loop (Note that Nantabibbie Loop is too short)
    • Oodla Wirra Station Loop
    • Ucolta Station Loop
    • Peterborough Loop, Peterborough Station and Peterborough Yard 1
    • Yongala Station Loop and Yongala Goods Loop
    • Belalie North Station Loop
    • Jamestown Station + Yard, Jamestown Loop + Yard and Jamestown Goods Loop + Yard
    • Caltowie Station Loop
    • Gladstone (all loops and yards).
  • The approaches to all locations are protected by invisible signals to prevent the AI Half Speed Slowdown Problem when approaching a signal at stop.
  • Enhanced Interlocking Towers with set paths are available for your optional use at Paratoo (departure), Peterborough (arrival and departure), Jamestown (arrival and departure) and Gladstone (arival). Details of all available EIT Paths are provided in the Tab PH Grey.png tab at each location with EITs. Click Location Index for details.
